The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not being aware of how to work with it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Whenever you get in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the technical skills and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

A lady from Winterborne Muston with a full car of kids in her diesel friend's Lexus RX had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that the car would be fine and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
